Getting ready and simply tossing stuff into my suitcase (only to realize 10
hours later that I forgot things of great importance such as my beloved
burgundy red lipstick. How am I supposed to go through Christmas season without
it?) . Listening to that. I know it’s in Russian and cheesy, but it’s awfully
catchy. #the_perks_of_living_in_a_multilingual_environment
13:20 Sweetest
“Have a nice trip” text from my friend G. –thanks girl!
13:45
Arriving at the train station –we made it! I said we because kindest bf in the
world insisted of walking me to the station. One last goodbye kiss before the
train doors close!
15:10 I’m
the first one waiting in the line to drop off my luggage. I got here so early
even the airport desk clerk isn’t here!
16:40
Picking out books for me to read during the flight. In a world where everybody
buys perfume and alcohol in Duty Free I choose books. I’m still waiting for my
alien parents to pick me up.
17:20 People
watching at the gate. Airplane full of Greeks just landed. Is there one –just one-
Greek woman that hasn’t dyed her hair blonde? Note to self: Try traveling on
high-heels to see if it works and if you feel so fabulous as all these
women look.
18:06 Steve
Jobs look-alike is sitting in my seat! Go awaaaaaaay, this window seat is meant
for me!
19:23 Forgeting
that book and the pile of fashion magazines resting in peace in my bag and
opting for a nap instead.
19:45 Only
to regret it a little later, my neck hurts!
20:30
Airplane food, airplane food –did I say I hate it?
21:30 Seeing
Athens ‘ night lights from above; I’m in love.
22:30 (Local
time) Hurray! We’re in Athens! The package has reached its destination.
22:48
Awesome dad waiting for me outside luggage claim. “Did you get taller, honey?”
and big hugs.
23:36 Home,
sweet home! Brother wearing non-matching pajama top and bottom, cat meowing
hello, Christmas decoration everywhere and my mum’s all time classic question “Did
you lost weight?”
